    Packaging
    Elizabeth C.

    Exceptional creamy goodness. Two distinctively different flavors and both excellent. The pastry shell dipped in chocolate , with a cream filling topped with small chocolate chips. The taste is amazing - and so fresh. The canolli shell has a nice soft sweetness to it and the pistachio flavor adds another layer of deliciousness. Definitely recommend- definitely wish to return! Thank you for an amazing enjoyable experience, I give your product 5 stars!!!

    Loaf of bread

    I love to support local my only complaint is the price is getting a bit out of hand. It's a mass produced half of a loaf of rye bread for $6.00. If I still lived in Chicago I would find a local bakery that makes authentic polish or Jewish rye bread. I only bought it because we needed it for a dish we're making and it's the only one in the store that passed the YUKA App. It scored a 72/100 and received a good rating for not having any poison in it cheers to that , all the others scored a bad rating. Come on Mario give us locals a break $6.00 .

    Hearth Baked French Roll
    Reginice C.

    I've been passing by the Turano factory's bake shop, and I finally stopped and walked in. I was greeted with the smell of fresh bread and pastries. I got a French roll; they come in one size, loooooong! Ha ha! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to try any pastries, as none were plant-based or vegan. The blueberries muffins looked so good.

    Carrot cake slice

    Wellbwe all know and love Turano bread! I went for almond pastries, and cheese danish. They were sold out of the cheese danish, so I decided to treat myself to carrot cake....only if it had cream cheese frosting. The woman behind the counter assured me it was cream cheese frosting. I get all the way home to Plainfield, take a couple of bites, and realize it's BUTTERCREAM frosting!!!! Not happy... I wasted $ in calories that don't even taste good, and it's too far to take it back and ask for a refund!

    The turano bakeshop is excellent I had the Macaroons and the chocolate cake slice both were extra rich smooth and excellent -highly recommended. You can also buy their bread products here. The coffee was (free after $15 purchase) rich and strong.

    Back in early February this year, Rosa J. was a professional thrifter, of course on her days off. She made it to the Salvation Army in Oak Park on foot while fighting with that nasty snow, but she noticed "an image of man with a mustache" across the road. At that time she didn't pay much attention to Turano Bakery because she thought that might just be a distribution center. Can someone tell Rosa J. that she was wrong? I found the Yelp business page for Turano Bakery. There's a retail shop open to the public on Roosevelt. I believe the hours on Yelp are slightly off: they are open from 0700 to 1800 (M to F); 0800 to 1700 (Sat.); 0800 to 1400 (Sun.)! I was worried that hubby and I couldn't make it since we came all the way from Albany Park, Chicago to Oak Park by the CTA Blue Line. After we got off at Oak Park station, we proceeded to the exit located on East Ave., and we stayed on East Ave and walked north until we hit Roosevelt. The entire retail shop was rather small; there were two (2) high tables with no chairs if you want to consume your treats onsite. I've visited many bakeries around town, yet I found items I don't normally see at Turano: cranberry pistachio biscotti and baffo (a singular form of "mustache" in Italian, with "baffi" being plural). I picked up these two (2) rare finds, a connoli, and a brownie (hubby spotted it). The tastes were really top-notch. My favorite was the cranberry pistachio biscotti. They were the best companion with a cup of red eye, which was made immediately after I got home via my trusty Keurig. Hubby, on the other hand, enjoyed his brownie. The brownie appeared to be much flatter and "tile-like," instead of being made like a usual "spongy" cubic. Their brownies were "nutty," with a plenty of peanuts in every bite. However, if you don't like nuts or are allergic to them, this kind of brownies might not be your cup of tea. I would have rendered five (5) stars with no doubt for the qualities of bakery items, but I wish there was a cafe dining room so that I could enjoy them while they were fresh. There weren't many benches along Roosevelt in Oak Park. Otherwise, "having a picnic" on the street would be a fun thing to do during the summer time here.

Your sweets have blessed the community and visitors for so many years, and this is us letting you know ; We haven't forgotten! I'm returning after 20years, and they are still doing an amazing job. So busy. So busy. BEST PRICES you'll ever find. Quality sweets, the cookie dough, it's not an overwhelming amount of cream cheese. Sometimes too much over powers the taste- this dough is perfect for the amount of filling they add to the Kolchki. (I'm sorry, I spelled that wrong. )So the balance is great. Not too much dough, Not too much filling. Balance. I love that I can dip it into my Tea and it doesn't fall apart. Personally. They don't sell tea and this is Take Away Only. ORDERS are encouraged. There was a lot of clear signs for customers . Pick up was very organized. They use a number system to manage it well. Like the deli department in many stores. But this is the GREAT Bakery. And the price is so reasonable , wow. They care about their community and it shows. Polite people. Busy but Organized. Many can't get that part of business straight so I applaud them. Disciplined. Thank you for still being here in the community and we love it. HIGHLY Recommend checking out this area. Lots to do over there. Fun stuff. Skate rinks, Weeds Stores, PORTILLOS, Great Dentists here with Superb Representations. So try them! The smores fudge brownie was Awesome also

The combination of flavors is incredible, rich chocolate, fresh bananas, custard, and light whipped frosting all layered together perfectly. It's one of those cakes that everyone talks about long after the candles are blown out. What really makes it special is how fresh everything tastes. The cake is moist, the filling isn't overly sweet, and the balance of flavors is just right. You can tell they've been perfecting this recipe for years. Every birthday we celebrate with an Atomic Cake from Weber's feels a little more special because of it. The staff is always friendly and helpful, even when the store is busy, and the quality is consistently excellent. If you're celebrating a birthday, this place is a must. Weber's Bakery truly makes birthdays unforgettable!
